Colour

I would like to recommend a book to you all. My mum bought it for me, saying that she was not sure if it was going to help, but was worth a shot.

The Mindfulness Companion ~ Dr Sarah Jane Arnold

This book is a colouring book, with insightful information and tips of how to calm yourself in it. I find that normally I don’t like these books as IL find them patronising at the best of times. But this book is nothing like that.

It helps you concentrate on your breathing, the movements of your pencil strokes, and teaches you ways to calm yourself. You also have little sections in the book to write your feelings down, and how the book might have taught you a new way.
